So You Think They Can Dance?

Given all of the new dance shows and contests, it's fairly obvious that most people like to watch others dance. And sad to say, most like to watch novices, because they're secretly hoping they'll fall. If you're one of those, there's a chance your wishes might be granted this Sunday...

Given all of the new dance shows and contests, it's fairly obvious that most people like to watch others dance. And sad to say, most like to watch novices, because they're secretly hoping they'll fall. If you're one of those, there's a chance your wishes might be granted this Sunday at Mira Quién Baila: La Gira (Look Who's Dancing: The Tour), live at the Hard Rock. Based on the Univision hit dance competition, the show features well-known Latin personalities competing in classic dance genres -- basically, the Hispanic version of Dancing With the Stars. But this live version will feature audience participation. At the end of the show, one lucky audience member will get to dance with the celebrity dancers -- possibly the fall you were looking for. Hosted by choreographer Javier "Poty" Castillo, this performance will kick off the show's tour. Mira Quién Baila: La Gira begins at 7 p.m. Tickets start at $39. The Hard Rock is located at 1 Seminole Way in Hollywood. Call 800-745-3000, or visit myhrl.com.
